It’s Christmas Day for Holly Wainwright because she gets to talk about… Gwyneth Paltrow! The woman behind Goop has opened up about her marriage breakdown in an essay for Vogue. So, did she really spark a “separation revolution”?

Also, it’s been 13 years since Prime Minister Julia Gillard was called “barren” by Senator Bill Heffernan. On Tuesday, MP Philip Donato used the word while speaking to fellow politician Steph Cooke. But did he actually mean it? We discuss.  

And, what is low-grade depression? Michelle Obama spoke about suffering from it in a recent episode of her new podcast. 

Plus, vulva masks are now a thing. Should we get on board?

Have you ever noticed that no one ever asks President Donald Trump follow up questions in interviews? Well, that’s exactly what US-based Australian journalist Jonathan Swan did in what has been declared ‘the greatest Trump interview ever.’ Jessie recaps.

Also, why should anyone have kids? After watching Mike Birbiglia’s Netflix special, Jessie’s thinking it sounds like a terrible idea. Will Holly and Mia manage to convince her otherwise?

Plus, are we cancelling Ellen Degeneres for not being nice? We discuss.

The word ‘despair’ would not be an overstatement when it comes to how Melburnians are feeling at the moment as they enter into Stage 4 of lockdown. The numbers are scary and restrictions are severe. So, how are Victorians coping? 

Also, we need to talk about supermodel Gigi Hadid’s house. The Internet can’t stop yelling about how ugly it is, while Mia is convinced her taste is ‘impeccable’. 

Plus, some positivity during the pandemic. We’re sharing the things that are making us laugh.

Note: Jessie Stephens is dating Mia Freedman’s son, Luca Lavigne.

You're not imagining it, Australians are angry. The three Queensland women who crossed the border with COVID-19 have been met with enormous outrage. Should their pictures have even be shared? And are they the right people to blame? We discuss.

Plus, is the most rebellious thing a young person can do these days… get married?

And, we need to talk about an emotion we can’t seem to shake, no matter how old and wise we get: shame.

Have you suddenly noticed black-and-white portraits in your Instagram feed? They'll likely be closeups of women's faces — some famous, plenty not — with a few names tagged and a caption that declares "#challengeaccepted". So, what is the challenge exactly? And why are celebrities and normal women alike taking part in it?

Plus, The Bachelorette has been announced and... THERE'S TWO OF THEM. We’re the third country to do this, and in the other two markets, it hasn’t ended well. So, will these two women be pitted against each other?

And, is the environmental load falling disproportionately on women?

Hosts: Holly Wainwright, Jessie Stephens, and Mia Freedman

Julia Gillard might have one of the most talked about feminist political addresses of all time, but this past week, everyone’s talking about another one. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez called out a fellow US politician in Congress after he called her a bitch, and women can’t get enough of it.

Plus, did you think we were going to get through today’s episode without Mia talking about Taylor Swift? Nope. So why is this album so different?

And where do our personal freedoms end, and our social responsibilities begin? Three Victorian women have gone viral over the past three weeks after they refused to follow Victoria’s COVID-19 guidelines.

Hosts: Holly Wainwright, Jessie Stephens, and Mia Freedman 

Producer: Elissa Ratliff

Recommendations: Listen to folklore by Taylor Swift

Do not mess with the pregnant people of Melbourne.

This week, it was announced that partners would be asked to leave hospitals two hours after the birth. A debate has ensued, and to talk about it we're joined by original Outlouder, the very pregnant Monique Bowley https://www.instagram.com/moniquebowley/

And, there’s a new generational war simmering away in offices, and it’s been kicked off by non-other than Chair Of The ABC and all-round media legend, Ita Buttrose. Ita says that millennials ‘lack resilience and need hugging’. So, does she have a point?

Plus, the Bachelor In Paradise sex contract we can't stop thinking about.

Hosts: Holly Wainwright, Jessie Stephens, and Mia Freedman 

Producer: Elissa Ratliff

Recommendations: Jessie wants you to listen to Mia's Lady Startup Story with Sally Hepworth: https://mamamia.com.au/podcasts/lady-startup/

The world is now officially concerned about Kanye West. Over the weekend the rapper hosted his first presidential rally and he went viral. He spoke for more than an hour, and at times his speech was incoherent. He had no microphone. He wore a bullet-proof vest, yelled, cried, argued with people, reprimanded the audience for clapping and had 2020 shaved into the back of his head. So in these situations, what do we do?

Plus did you know that it’s very easy to tell who’s a good person and who's not? There’s a theory that all you have to do is look at what they do with a shopping trolley. 

And, eight Australian magazines closed yesterday, leaving the offering in your local newsagents… thin, to say the least. Will they be missed?

Hosts: Holly Wainwright, Jessie Stephens, and Mia Freedman 

Producer: Elissa Ratliff

Recommendations: Holly and Mia want you to read Rodham by Curtis Sittenfeld

There’s a new bible for the unattached. So are you anxious, avoidant, or secure? And how can knowing these things help you find and keep love? Jessie is going to take us through it.

Plus, we’ve never really seen a royal wedding like the one we saw over the weekend. Princess Beatrice married in a very small ceremony - the first royal wedding that was private in 235 years. So is this what you do when you’re a royal and your father is an alleged sex offender?

And, with masks being made mandatory in Victoria, should we all be wearing them?

Hosts: Jessie Stephens, Kee Reece and Holly Wainwright 

Producer: Elissa Ratliff

Recommendations: Holly wants you to watch Masterchef on Ten.
